Trusts. — Austin

A trust can be an effective planning tool for managing assets during your lifetime and providing a clear plan for what happens if you become incapacitated or pass away. When structured and funded properly, a trust may help provide continuity, privacy, and efficiency for your family.

Goodcatt & Associates works with individuals, families, and business owners in Austin to design trusts tailored to their specific goals and circumstances.

Trust planning for Austin clients.

Clients in Austin consider trust planning for many reasons. Some are focused on avoiding or minimizing probate. Others want a smoother plan in place in the event of incapacity, or a more efficient way to manage assets for children, beneficiaries, or business interests. Our role is to help you understand whether a trust makes sense for your situation and, if so, to structure it in a way that works in practice—not just on paper.

Trusts and Texas law.

One of the most common reasons clients consider a trust is probate avoidance. In Texas, assets that are properly titled in a funded revocable trust generally pass outside of probate, which can simplify and accelerate the transition for your family.

How we work with you.

We meet with clients in Austin by appointment, and consultations are also available virtually. Our goal is to give you a clear path forward—what your options are, what the process looks like, and what a plan tailored to your situation can look like in practice.
